Mine was the only goldwing at todays mission. After being released from standing the flag line in 94 degree temp. for what seemed like a long time in the sun. Got on my bike to leave with the others,and no start. I replaced the alt. a month ago with a compufire and a new gell battery. Checkedthe charging rate after the installand it is over 14 volts. Anyway several members of the gypsy motorcycle clubstayed with me until help came to give me a jump start. Jumped it and it fired right uptook off for home and they followed me to make sure I made it. When We were going past the local watering hole I honked my horn at the rest of the group going in for a cold one. Instantly the bike shut down. I was doing about 70 and tried to restart it. Nothing turned the key on and off several times hoping it would restart as I was coasting to a stop. Nothing no lights on the dash nothing worked. The person I got the jump from pulled over and I jump started the bike again ran fine and I got it home. I have not checked the battery voltage yet but it will not start and I have no lights. All fuses look good. What do you think? A bum relay getting hot? This is on a 93 1500. Oh yea the guys that stayed with me were Harley guys making sure a fellow biker made it home. My hat is off to them.
